I said over-easy!!!!!!
Hey, This is my first post and I'd just like to first say thanks for all the knowledge this site has given me. Im 14 and I have wanted to be a Navy pilot since the age of about 4. No military background except my uncle was an artillery man in Korea. I just have a couple questions.
First-If I join the ROTC and am rejected a pilots slot, can I opt out and leave the Navy?
Second-I'm in all honors and get pretty good grades(94 avg)and I hope to go to RPI for aeronautics education(work my ass off). If I then aplly to OTS do I have a good shot of getting a pilot slot or is it pin the tail on the donkey?
Three-Will flight hours help me get in?(should I try to take some flying classes or somethin?)
Basically I want to know whether I should do ROTC or wait till after college. I already ordered some flight apptitude books and flying books.
I know some of these questions have probobally been answered somewhere in this forum so sorry if any of these are repeats.
